We suspect many of our readers will already know all about the Yes A Referendum For Recovery leaflet available from Yes.scot, but having had the chance to digest its contents, the Yes DIY page has no hesitation in saying it is a must-read for all people who support the cause of Scottish independence.
As former MSP Michael Russell said: “As we look ahead to recovery from the pandemic, and the type of country we want to build after Covid, it’s certain that we can’t let a UK Tory government decide on that for us.
“Our case has to demonstrate a relentless optimism and hope, grounded in the reality that shows how well an independent Scotland could do, freed of the UK Fnion.
“To help with that, we’re producing a series of handy materials – including this detailed, eight-page leaflet which includes vital facts, stats and arguments for Scottish independence.
“This is a great thing to share as widely as possible. Start by sharing the link with at least five of your friends who you think might be open to the discussion or who you believe need to know the facts.
“This summer, let’s harness all our positive energy into conversations with the undecided. Remember, if every one of us convinces at least one No voter, the momentum for independence will speed up again. And again, and again.
“If we all stay focused on our goal and find constructive ways to work together, we will win.
“And we need to win – for the future of our country and everyone who lives here.”

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
